Classic Play-doh fun
By
PghYinzer
My brother and I had this as kids. I don't remember much about it
besides it was a flip top head and you made teeth for it, so I can't say
how the new compares to the old - but I remember we played with it a
LOT. My girls (3 1/2yo twins) just got this for Christmas and there's a
lot of play value here - you make teeth, you put them in the gums, you
drill the teeth, you fill the teeth, you can brush the teeth, you can
even make braces for the teeth. It's pretty involved.
Only complaint
it when you mold the teeth the root part is pretty thick so it's not
super easy to pop in the patient's gums, but otherwise it's great. (You
can squeeze it into shape a little, but it can be frustrating for young
ones) I think it's one of those toys that will last for a while
because as your child gets older, they can get more intricate and exact
with how they play with it. Right now they're just making teeth and
bickering with each other, but they seem to be having a blast.
It comes with white, silver, and red play-doh. White for teeth, silver for metal - but I saw the red and thought, well that's gruesome... I thought it was for blood, for when you're cleaning. Ha! But my daughter pointed out, that's for toothpaste. Ah. The innocence of a child. :-) (It's obvious if you're looking at the box, but I wasn't looking at the box at the time)

The toy is OK. It's not as easy to make the teeth, braces and other
things as it looks. The holes in the mouth where the playdoh teeth go
are not deep enough to hold them so you can drill. Once you start
drilling, they fall right out. Also, the top and bottom of the mouth
come apart very easily which can be frustrating for a child. Making the
braces is nearly impossible. The tools are good quality. The drill
actually drills. It's a fun idea but not as easy as I expected. It's
still pretty cool though.

My son has seen this toy in commercials, on videos online, and at toys
R us every single time we go. We always by pass it because I didn't
think he could have SO much fun with it. Boy so I regret it. It was ALL
smiles and laughs once we got it open. It comes with 5 "tools" 3 play
doh(2 small-grey & red|1 big white one). It does need batteries but
what you now a day doesn't? In my opinion every single cent is worth it!
The teeth Are made in the real half circle thing. It has the mold to
make two teeth at a time. My son and I shared about 2 hours of straight
play with this toy! My son has autism and he doesn't sit there and play
with toys for more than a few minutes. I regret not buying this any
sooner! This was a WONDERFUL purchase and I LOVE IT! I highly reccomend
this to any parent. My son is 3 1/2. I hope your little one enjoys it
just as much.
she thought it was awesome and had a lot of fun

My daughter saw a video on youtube that reviewed this product and
wanted to watch similar videos. When we opened it she was excited and
played with it for a couple hours, she thought it was awesome and had a
lot of fun. It will be fun to take out once a week or so to play with.
Another reason I wanted to get it was to get her interested in teeth
because she hates brushing her teeth (she is almost 3) and she has
started to not fight the teeth brushing so much.
Prepares for dentist visit

My almost 3 year old son knocked his teeth out at the playground so
visiting the dentist started to become a traumatic event for him...until
we bought this toy! He played with it everyday up until his next
dentist visit. We each took turns and pretended to be Dr. Todd (his
dentist). After 2 weeks, we went to his dental appointment, and it went
great. Love this toy! I recommend this for any little one who is
approaching his first dentist appointment.
Great Toy. Used over and over again. Just need more play-doh

Both our girls 2 and 7 play with this toy regularly. It is not a toy
that they got as a gift and play with once and then are not interested
in it again. They love it. They take it out regularly and can both
enjoy it together. However, we have run out of the silver play-dough
and I can't find where to get a replacement pack - red, white and
silver. this only matters to a seven year old, but still it would be
good if they sold a replacement pack, as they for the sweet shop. Then I
would have given it five stars,

I received this as a gift for my six year old boy. It is easy to
assemble and the pretend drill works great. Unlike most play-doh toys,
this one is easy to clean and put away. This is definitely a toy that
will get lots of play.

This product is amazing... hands-on fun and interaction while learning
about the dentist and fillings, braces, shapes of different teeth.
Everyone should have one! Especially before a dental appointment!
